I think for the 3c509, all you need is:
option option-128 e4:45:74:68:00:00;
option option-129 "NIC=3c509";
Make sure you have option-128 specified exactly as i've
shown.
The other thing you MUST do is make sure that you've disabled
plug-n-plan on the card. You will need the 3com utility to
do that.
